Chalmers team develops graphite-like anode for Na-ion batteries; Janus graphene

Green Car Congress

Researchers at Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden, have developed a nanometric graphite-like anode for sodium ion (Na + storage), formed by stacked graphene sheets functionalized only on one side, termed Janus graphene. The estimated sodium storage up to C 6.9 100 to 150 mA h g ? 100 to 150 mA h g ?1

How clean is EV battery manufacturing?

Electric Auto Association

What is the impact on the EV lifecycle carbon footprint? A 30% decrease in grid carbon intensity would reduce emissions from the battery production chain by about 17%. Audi’s e-Tron batteries are manufactured at a carbon-neutral facility. So, how clean is EV battery manufacturing? Is it becoming cleaner?
